For immediate release

Amiga Forever Classic Support - Workbench 3.1 Update

October 30, 2014 - Via well-known Amiga resellers like
AmigaKit,
ASB Computer and
Vesalia, as well as specialists like CDTV
expert Chris Millard, Cloanto is
making available an updated set of 3.1-generation Amiga Forever products for Classic Amiga
systems:

Classic Support Workbench 3.1 Floppy Disk Set (six DD disks)

Classic Support Workbench 3.1 Hard Disk Image (e.g. on CompactFlash)

Classic Support 3.1 ROMs

Classic Support 3.1 CDTV Upgrade Kit

Amiga Forever always included Workbench 3.1 as a set of floppy disk
images and a preinstalled hardfile. By popular demand, a "Classic Support"
scenario was explicitly outlined in a Coexistence Agreement between Amiga,
Inc. and Cloanto, for use also outside of emulated Amiga systems.

Workbench 3.1 remains true to the look and feel and the feature set of
the last Workbench by Commodore/Amiga, including the ability to boot from
floppy disks, which was not an easy task in consideration of some required
improvements and limited disk space. The updated Workbench 3.1 further remains compatible with 3.0 and 3.1 Amiga ROMs, and is
additionally compatible with 3.X ROMs as used in Amiga Forever. Under the
hood, the distribution was improved not only by restoring some lost content,
but also by including some fixes required to run the same Workbench 3.1 on
different Amiga models (e.g. the A-4000T) and on larger-capacity hard disks.

Each Classic Support set comes with a license key that can be used to
download the same content again for recovery or update purposes. Additional technical details are
included in "Amiga Forever Workbench 3.1
Improvements".
